Review: Predominantly fermented at
cool temperatures in stainless steel tanks, with a small portion barrel
fermented in older French oak, the wine is blended, bottled and released three
to four months after fermentation. The nose shows fragrant gooseberry
characters with underlying passionfruit and lychee aromas. Minerally, stalky
notes are evident and provide additional complexity. The palate is a fine and
elegant style with zesty lemon acidity and length. Varietal characteristics of
passionfruit pulp and gooseberry dominate with hints of lemon peel in the
background.
My
Review: This wine had a sweet smell, kind of similar to
Welch’s sparkling grape juice. It tastes like the sparkling grape juice that
you drink on New Years before you turn 21. The taste was very bitter and almost
zesty.
